Special Properties
In combination with MGA Contact sheet-fed offset inks, ACRYLAC-MGA Contact dispersion coatings enable the production of legally compliant food packaging when applied correctly and at the recommended application rate.
ACRYLAC-MGA Contact water-based coatings are formulated and manufactured in compliance with the following publication issued by the European Printing Ink Association (EuPIA): the "Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) - Printing Inks for Food Contact Materials ".
ACRYLAC-MGA Contact water-based coatings are formulated using only components that do not migrate or migration-capable constituents that have been evaluated for contact with foodstuffs; the specific migration limits (SMLs) are clearly undershot within the recommended application rate (Ratio: Packing/Filling: 6 dm²/kg). This also takes account of potential sources of raw material contamination (NIAS). This distinguishes them significantly from conventional, standard water-based coatings. The migration even of constituents that have been evaluated has been reduced to a minimum with ACRYLAC-MGA Contact coatings.
